1. The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

School, University

The Hong Kong Polytechnic University is one of eight universities in Hong Kong. It was officially granted full university status in 1994 but its history can be traced back to 1937 when it was still called The Government Trade School. There are eight faculties and schools which provide students with different knowledge and community service opportunities. Covering an area of 93,500 square meters, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University has sport centers, leisure rooms, restaurants, and residential halls.

2. Hung Hom Ferry Pier

Building

The Hung Hom Ferry Pier was built in 1965 and once located next to the Royal Peninsula but it was then moved to its current location in 1991 after the completion of the Hung Hom Bay Reclamation Project. The North Point line is the only ferry route left now, as the Central and Wan Chai lines ceased operation due to a decrease in passenger numbers. With some nice food stalls and restaurants nearby, it is still nice to walk around the pier as you will be able to see the characteristic Hong Kong-style ferry.

3. Hong Kong Coliseum

Sports Center, Stadium

Opened in 1983, Hong Kong Coliseum is the biggest and most popular multi-purpose indoor stadium in Hong Kong, which is usually used for international sports events, entertainment programs, pop concerts and conventions. The architectural style of the stadium is unique and special. It looks like a diamond or an inverted pyramid, and the imposing arena, which is always used for pop concerts, can hold 12,500 people and provide them with an unobstructed view, as no column is used to support the rooftop.

5. Wonderful Worlds of Whampoa

Shopping Mall

Spreading over 1.4 million square feet, Wonderful Worlds of Whampoa is one of the largest shopping malls in Hong Kong and holds over 300 shops, 50 restaurants, five supermarkets, and entertainment facilities. The mall consists of several themed zones, including Whampoa Gourmet Place, Fashion World, Treasure World, Home World, Amazing World and Pebbles World, so that visitors can shop according to their interests and preferences. The architectural style of the mall is brilliant as well: the exterior is shaped into a streamlined ship and the interior is bright and sophisticated.

6. Hung Hom Square

Shopping Mall

Established in 1982, Hung Hom Square is one of the oldest shopping malls in the district. The mall is housed in a four-story building and there are over 300 shops that provide a wide range of products and services, including supermarkets, book stores, banks, pharmacies, and tuition centers.
